My first entry in quite a while. The challenge was to, you guessed it, redesign Superman.

I toyed with many ideas on how to tackle this and tried a bunch of different designs before I settled on this one. I didn't have one particular desire in mind when redesigning Supes, I mostly went with something that I liked enough and would fit, if not the real Superman, then maybe one in some alternate universe.

this design seems more ultraman like, than superman like, and while I don't really like superman all that much, but this makes him look too evil? mean? unheroic? like the style but really dont like the redesign.

Yeah, he does look a bit "darker" in tone but that's kinda what I wanted. I've always liked Kingdom Come Superman who, despite only slight changes, always looks like he means business. That's the kind of vibe I was going for.

My gosh. I DEFINITELY love the outfit. The black is much more sleek looking, and getting rid of the outer undies is ALWAYS a plus. ^_~

I like how you brought the red down, around the chest as well, instead of just leaving just the diamond shape. The gold on the waste seems to be a bit out of place in my opinion, but I do like something breaking the top and bottom besides just blue and black.

Your the muscle anatomy on this is quite lovely, and he looks very much like a man of steel in my opinion. ^_^ Wouldn't mind having him save me any day. ROFL

Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you liked the piece and yeah, you hit the nail on the head on the yellow pieces around the waist, they're there to break up that area a little bit. I guess they made more sense when I had an almost completely black outfit, before I changed the torso from black to blue. Oh, well.
